WOW : Terror Plot October 19th, 2008
According to Wired the Pentagon have developed a theory on how World of Warcraft could be used to plan terrorist attacks.
The ludicrousness of this claim is truly incredible. In fact the underlying factual basis of it is somewhat reduced by the quote:-
There’s been no public proof to date of terrorists hatching plots in virtual worlds.
So basically there is no evidence to to support it whatsoever and it’s people like me propagating this nonsence that give it credance. Oh, I hadn’t really thought that through.
It does look like there are a number of spies that quite fancy being paid to play Warcraft all day. Good luck to them, it’s probably good work if you can get it.
